Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Roku is a handsome, loving, smart, curious, playful, funny Snowshoe (beautiful markings and blue eyes), born May 2017. He loves to run and jump and play and chase/be chased. He also loves to nap in the sunshine. He eats canned and dry food and loves his water fountain. He's healthy if a bit overweight at 17 pounds. He may have been an indoor/outdoor cat. 
I adopted Roku (and his housemate Nina) from Oakland Animal Services in October 2021. Nina settled in right away but Roku has had a difficult time. They were listed as a bonded pair, but they are not. Nina (who is half his size) tries her best to avoid him. I believe he needs a busy home with more than one person, perhaps with older children or teens, where he can get lots of attention and play time. He may do well with other pets who want to play or as a solo pet with a solo person. He is "happy enough" here in his current, quiet home but he deserves better!
